  • I still feel guilty giving a "local" coffeeshop 2/5 stars, but Green Beanery seems to make big bucks off of selling coffee equipment and skipping out on customer wifi, so I can justify myself. In my humble opinion the place gets 2 stars for being well-located (across from Bathurst station) and having plentiful seating. It's a-ok if you want conversation and have your own internet data. Drinks and food-wise, I've yet to find something that is actually exciting. I've tried an Americano, cappuccino, latte, and drip coffee here, and they were bland and watery each time. Cookies were dry and somewhat expensive, though they have some fair gluten-free and Vegan selections. One time I asked about an interesting snack on display, and the cashier proceeded to list out all the organic ingredients, nutrients, and ethical steps that went into creating this snack. It turned out to be some kind of oat cookie. It tasted okay and crumbled instantly on my plate. As others have noted, the coffeeshop's stance towards wifi is somewhat neolithic. Patrons attempting to go online are told that they should socialize with one another instead of going on the internet, which creates isolation, and leads to social ill. Bathrooms are guarded as well with elusive door-codes printed at the bottom of your receipt. You won't know this until you ask a staff, who will then grudgingly point you back to the receipt you'd already lost/tucked away. Contrary to most opinions, I don't believe all coffeeshops *must* offer wifi, though it's a little hard to understand why a centrally-located cafe in downtown Toronto would hold back on this regard. However, I'd rather Green Beanery treat us as the adults that we are, and just straight up tell us they don't like to share.
